Abstract

Triaxial Compression Test on Consolidated Undrained Shear Strength Characteristics of Fiber Reinforced Soil

Highlights

  • A composite geotextile made from a random and uniform mix of fiber materials into soil is called fiber reinforced soil

  • In the rural areas of Northwest China, it is still possible to see the courtyard walls and houses built from the loess with straw and other natural fiber materials in it

  • The tensile strength of polypropylene fiber reinforced soil is researched by Tang et al (2016b), and the results show that the fiber reinforcement can significantly increase the peak strength of the soil, and the tensile strength increases with the increasing of fiber content and dry density, and decreases with the increasing of water content

Summary

Introduction

A composite geotextile made from a random and uniform mix of fiber materials into soil is called fiber reinforced soil. As the global community is turning to a more sustainable way of development, it encourages the stabilization technology that can replace or minimize the use of traditional cement and other curing agents. In this respect, the use of fibers has been favored by many scholars. It can be seen that fiber reinforced soil has already been used in production practice, but the theoretical research of fiber reinforced soil is far behind the practice. The problems such as reinforcement mechanism, reinforcement effect, strength parameters and so on remain to be studied
